Simple really. We all know Dave checks all profiles, at a rate of 1000 a day. Today's batch apparently was 6138000 - 6138999.

This member applied for the old associate program that included providing their technical blog feed, but no longer has a blog. I've updated their (and others) settings.
Well caught.

Just noticed this link http://www.kingdatas.com/ under Sponsored Links; software for farming and generating e-mail addresses.
I cannot image Code Project would want to be associated with software that is so clearly marketed for spamming purposes.
The whole thing is probably automated; but at least you could do something about this one.

Sometimes when I go to a forum I like to see only the unanswered questions, so I won't waste my time and everyone else's.
Today I went to the C++ Questions forum, and right there at the top I saw the nice, big, Unanswered button. Lovely! I thought, as I clicked it.
But wait! What's this, I think, as I gaze upon all manner of VBA, C#, Java, and ASP.NET questions. Surely I made a stupid user error; you know the ones I'm talking about; like when you're looking at C++ Questions, and suddenly you're not?
OK, start over, click C++ Questions, and...YES! There's my stupid user mistake! There's an Unanswered Tab right there! Stupid me! I should have clicked on that! No harm, no foul, I'll just click that tab in a jiff, and be right where I want to... What's this! I'm looking at the same collection of random unanswered questions as before!
OK, OK, I've learned my lesson, and now I have a suggestion (in fact, two):
1. Rename the really big Unanswered button to Random Unanswered Questions.
2. Rename the Unanswered Tab to Free Obedience Lesson.
This will restore balance to the world, and keep from irritating the sh*t out of us peaceful denizens.
Someone smarter than me can probably think of a better solution, but I haven't had my Turmeric Curcumin yet this morning, so please be kind.

Thanks for that polite and well-mannered request. I couldn't tell, even by trying, that you hadn't yet had your Turmeric Curcumin yet.
I will remove the "All Questions" and "Unanswered" buttons at the top.
Removing these links means that when you're viewing a question, it's a little harder to quickly go back to the main list. I could hide them on the main list, but then you have a changing UI which can annoy people.
So, the solution I have implemented is based on the following:
When I choose "C#" from the Quick Answers dropdown I should see C# questions.
When I set a site filter, those filters should always be used when displaying lists.
When I have a site filter set and I choose "C#" from the dropdown, I want my site filter to apply.
When I click on a tab it should show Unanswered, active etc based on the current list I'm viewing.
The buttons at the top will be named "All Questions" and "All Unanswered". Clicking on these will show all questions filtered by your site preferences which will be highlighted in yellow". This is the one thing I'm unhappy about, since it's not really "All questions". It's "All questions based on your preferences" but that doesn't fit nicely into a button link.

Can you add a "Free Porn" button while you're in there messing with the buttons?
EDIT ======================
When you have to explain that something is a joke... oh, never mind.

I should at least get some reputation points for the suggestion.

Where would you like Chris to shove them seeing as you are on about porn........?

Someone should write an article on how different web browsers render porn. That would make a good article and may even win the monthly competition or something.

You seem to be netting negative points at the moment. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I got hammered a few days ago for a net -280 points. Some people here ain't got a sense of humor at all.

You did. You get 1 reputation point for each post you make. Well, I guess that'd just be "reputation point" and it seems you are after "reputation points".

Not gonna do it. It was a platinum voter, which means they've been here long enough to know I would not seriously suggest that you add a button like that.
This really needs to be said - F*ck 'em if they can't take a joke.

What is the background color of the banner? I believe its yellow or some kind of adrotator.
But I can see only white background on the right side of the codeproject banner logo.
Browser : IE7
Small Note : Why don't we have a direct "Add attachment" option atleast for Site Bugs/ Suggestions HTML Editor? I know there is a link option here but it would be nice if we can upload the screenshot directly.

I get this at work, where the company is blocking out the ad's.
In the ad's place there is just a white box.........
|
|
|
|
|
That's interesting, I use AdBlockPLus (Chrome) and it just removes the offending frame/div/whatever completely, so I get the orange banner.
Not that I would allow ABP to do anything with the hallowed CodeProject adverts, of course...

Do you have an adblocker installed?

Might I suggest that CP look into the following solutions to the mass duplicate and pointless questions that are so frequently posted:
1: Make the Search box bigger and more obvious on the page. Place it, colour it and size it so that even the dumbest user will spot it before spotting the Ask Question link. This should encourage searching before the (as the current trend suggests) posting questions.
2: Make the Ask a Question link less easy to access. Counter intuitive yes but if you simply placed the link on the All Questions page and not in the menu, then people would have to look harder before finding how to ask a question, this would further encourage searching.
3: Implement some form of question analyser such that questions that appear to be duplicate or simply demanding entire applications cannot be posted. A greater minimum question length should be coupled with this too.
Hoping to see some changes,
Ed 
P.s. I would like to comment that overall CP is a fabulous resource and a great help to me, just some of it's question asking members let it down a little...

To be honest, it probably wouldn't help. Most of them have done all the searching they want to just to find CP in teh first place - now all they want is the full code for their homework and they can get to the bar.
Making the search box cover the whole screen wouldn't encourage some of them to use it. LMGTFY.com[^] does though...sometimes!
